Great info. Thanks.

I knew the Zumwalt class ended at 3 but I had no idea the same happened with the sea wolf. Very interesting.

It says they built 4, but I agree with most of what you say.

Psycho Tim Walz wants to run “our navy” on algae.

He bloviates it with the utmost confidence.

My information was from a USNI press book on the design history of US destroyers. Of course, we all know that Wikipedia is never wrong so it must have been four.

On the other hand, I read that book quite a few years ago, and my memory is not guaranteed, either so I'm certainly not going to argue either way.
